Closing Time

When we started, you were ringing my bell

All did up on stupid stuff

Bottled down, you tripped and I fell

We got stuck on easy love

Sugar rush tricked me

Stomach in my feet

And now I know

What can I do but tell you the truth?

So I'll pull the trigger, untie my tongue

You've been kissing a loaded gun

I hate to do it, surprise, surprise

You'll be better come July

But only one of us knows it's closing time

The voices getting loud in my head

A guilty mind, I'm out of time

Now I'm crying to my mother, she said

"Life's not over, no one's dead"

Sugar rush tricked me

Look at us, baby

Now I know

What can I do but tell you the truth?

So I'll pull the trigger, untie my tongue

You've been kissing a loaded gun

I hate to do it, surprise, surprise

You'll be better come July

But only one of us know it's closing time
